Italian term or phrase: era sorto
Please can someone help me understand what is the object of "era sorto" in this sentence?

L’introduzione della filologia umanistica nei collegi trilingue - non solo a Lovanio, ma pure ad Alcalà, dove ****era sorto**** per volontà del cardinale Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros (1436-1517), oppure nel Collège de France di Parigi, fondato nel 1530 da Francesco I di Valois e da Guillaume Budé (1468-1540) per l’insegnamento congiunto di greco, ebraico, eloquenza latina, lingue orientali, scienze e matematica – influenza i programmi d’insegnamento, i curricula e le stesse funzioni accademiche.

Explanation:
The verb is sorgere, to rise but also to instigate or stir up. Here, Humanistic Philology has been introduced or included in the curicullum due to the will of Cardinal Francisco Jimenez de Cisneros.

Explanation:
the normal translation would be "founded", but here, it is not the college itself but the orientation.

agree  Elena Simonelli: it looks like they refer to "l'insegnamento della filologia", but then wrote "l'introduzione"
