Motif (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

theme

'motif' is the definition.
(I know that motif can be written as theme)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for theme that I've seen before include "tune used in Enigma Variations?" , "matter for discussion" , "basis for variations" , "sort of tune" , "Topical item" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the LA Times, the Universal, The Guardian, the Penny Press, the USA Today, The Star Tribune, The Telegraph and the King Feature Syndicate.
