The correct answer should be "perseverance" because Rainsford persevered through the endless swimming and because of his "battle" with the sea.

The theme highlighted in the mentioned excerpt would be perseverance.

The excerpt tells of Rainsford's courageous act of braving the sea to go to the direction of the shots despite of the harsh conditions at the sea. This is evidenced by the phrase "he fought the sea".

The term "doggedly" also describes a persistent pursuit which was what Rainsford showed. He showed perseverance in his actions.

Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts: they come back to everyone  with a certain alienated majesty.”</em>
