"A variation on the theme of" = thay đổi theo chủ đề -> nghĩa là cách làm/ăn nói/trình bày mới, khác với cách làm trước đây. 

Ví dụ
A variation on the theme of the home design, Palace's away strip sees the broad stripes (đường kẻ dọc) laid out on a crisp field of white for a perfectly prim jersey.

David Thewlis enters the film midway as Mike, a potential love interest for Jane. Mike’s not much more than a variation on the theme of madmen (người điên) he’s played in the past. He exists in this world, like everyone else that Jane encounters, to confuse her or to cause her pain. 

To our small brain, the jug handle is a variation on the theme of the roundabout (đường vòng) or traffic circle. No traffic lights, no left turn signals -- and more roundabouts in Arkansas all the time. The jug handle also reminds us of a Texas turnaround, or Texas U-turn, which is a lane for traffic to go from one side of a one-way frontage road to the opposite frontage road by crossing over or under an expressway.
