Answer:

Option D.  To comment about an issue facing society

Explanation:

There are many definitions of theme. But most of them have most of the point common.

Theme may be defined as "It is deeper meaning of the story running beneath the surface meaning of the story/poetry etc. I helps reader understand the deeper meaning of the story and understand some aspects of human conditions"

Literature has always been considered mirror of life - it reflects our society either directly (Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales)  or indirectly (Keats' "The Fall of Hyperion: A Dream). So in most cases the purpose of the theme of a literary work is to comment about an issue faced by society.

Option A is not correct because main element of theme's definition is missing in it i.e human conditions, society.

Option B is not correct also because elements of mystery and surprise are not integral parts of a literary work, while theme is an integral part.

Option C is also not correct: There's no doubt that author's life experiences shape his/her style of writing and the themes he or she chooses for his/her work. But theme is not just about author's life experiences - it is about society's life experiences.

The transformation of Mrs. Auld from a kind and kind woman to a cruel slave owner, in Douglass' opinion, was not a simple one.

The little Douglass was first treated with fondness by Mrs. Auld, who basically treated him in the exact same way as her own son, Tommy. Soon, it's become clear that slavery had the power to rob her of these endearing qualities and the early pleasure in her home.

When things were terrible for me, they did not improve at all for my home. When she realized that I was trying to learn how to read, she started acting even more violently than her husband did.

She was determined to adhere to her husband's instructions more precisely rather than simply being satisfied with simply doing what she had been told.
