thesis
The topic of this academic paper is " Does Jane Eyre achieve a class consciousness??".
The theme is "literary criticism has tended to treat
ideology in economistic terms as a fixed, normative field of discourse that
represses social reality, a conception that underlies the now commonplace
characterization of Victorian texts as both subverting and supporting ideology."
back ground
*What Jane Eyre does is that it assumes that the novel embodies a fixed ideology represented in the subjectivity of its heroine and inexorably produced in the reading subject, a view that obscures the involvement of the text in producing—not just reproducing—ideologies and identities as well as the variety of uses to which reading subjects can put this textual material.

*Because ideology is always being produced in time, we
should see the novel as producing, not merely reproducing, ideology.

OK, but identifying the topic is not the same as identifying the thesis. The topic is the subject area. The thesis is what the paper actually tries to *prove*.
