1. theme

   A topic (Greek topos, place) is a head of discourse. Since a topic for discussion is often stated in the form of a question, question has come to be extensively used to denote a debatable topic, especially of a practical nature — an issue; as, the labor question; the temperance question. In deliberative assemblies a proposition presented or moved for acceptance is called a motion, and such a motion or other matter for consideration is known as the question, since it is or may be stated in interrogative form to be answered by each member with a vote of "aye" or "no;" a member is required to speak to the question; the chairman puts the question. In speaking or writing the general subject or theme may be termed the topic, tho it is more usual to apply the latter term to the subordinate divisions, points, or heads of discourse; as, to enlarge on this topic would carry me too far from my subject; a pleasant drive will suggest many topics for conversation.

   Synonyms:
   division, head, issue, matter, motion, point, proposition, question, subject, topic

1. Wayne Schmidt:

   Until something changes on the macro global economic view where business really starts to pick up, this will continue to be the theme, i have a hard time seeing the supply and demand of oil coming into balance…as in the short term with Saudi Arabia saying they won’t cut production, maybe Iran does or doesn’t come onto the market. But prices in the high 20s is a real possibility.

2. Adamo Macri:

   My portraits have a neutral appearance to them. Depending on the theme, achieving the appropriate balance is always an obstacle. Proportions, like everything else, require meticulous measurement. That is, how masculine, emotional, and expressive they may come across and were meant to be - as if working in a science lab.
