Eugene Corti RIIP: The "X" Factor (UPDATE)

The Deaths ib 2014 site lists under January :

Eugenio Corti, 93, Italian writer (The Red Horse)

The book is an addition to the "Red/Auburn/Fire..." and the "Horse" pattern-clusters. Note from the books wiki page:

The book is divided in three parts:

• The Red Horse,

• The Pale Horse, and

• The Tree of Life.

Do note the "Tree of Life" at the end, an addition to the recent "Flora/Flower/Tree/Wood..." pattern-cluster.

His surname is Italian for "court" and so note the etymology:

court (v.) "woo, offer homage," as one does at court, 1570s; see court (n.). Related: Courted; courting

court (n.) late 12c., from Old French cort (11c., Modern French cour) "king's court, princely residence," from Latin cortem, accusative of cors (earlier cohors) "enclosed yard," and by extension (and perhaps by association with curia "sovereign's assembly"), "those assembled in the yard; company, cohort," from com- "together" (see com-) + stem hort- related to hortus "garden, plot of ground" (see yard (n.1)). 

I get the sense of the TUSSH, the proposed "Two United System Structure Home" that the inner twin world have introduced a number of times in various posts.

His name Eugene is "well born" in origin and so this fits in... as in this bring about... give birth to this "corti".  It's interesting to note that "corti" is similar to French "coeur" meaning "heart", and "core" (middle), note the etymology:

heart (n.) Old English heorte "heart; breast, soul, spirit, will, desire; courage; mind, intellect," from Proto-Germanic *khertan  

core (n.)... Old French coeur "core of fruit..." from Latin cor "heart," from PIE root *kerd- "heart". Nuclear reactor sense is from 1949. 

Note this excerpt from the wiki page of the famous race horse, Secretariat:

A necropsy revealed his heart was significantly larger than that of an ordinary horse.^[32] An extremely large heart is a trait that occasionally occurs in Thoroughbreds, linked to a genetic condition passed down via the dam line, known as the "x-factor". 

This is an addition to the recent "X/Kiss..." pattern-cluster.  Note this next excerpt from Secretariat's wiki page:

The x-factor can be traced to the historic racehorse Eclipse, which was necropsied after his death in 1789. Because Eclipse's heart appeared to be much larger than other horses, it was weighed, and found to be 14 pounds (6.4 kg), almost twice the normal weight

and then this:

 Secretariat was a large chestnut colt and was given the same nickname, "Big Red."  

Because the horse "Eclipse" is where the big heart originates, note the following etymology of "eclipse":

eclipse (n.)Old French eclipse "eclipse, darkness" (12c.), from Latin eclipsis, from Greek ekleipsis "an abandonment, an eclipse," from ekleipein "to forsake a usual place, fail to appear, be eclipsed," from ek "out" (see ex-) + leipein "to leave" (cognate with Latin linquere; see relinquish).

Since we're now on the topic of "X Factor", note the following from the show's wiki page re http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X_Factor:

The "X Factor" of the title refers to the undefinable "something" that makes for star quality.^[1] 

In the case of the first use of the term, "x-factor", has defined it as "heart"!!
