A topological interpretation of Hochster's Theta pairing of two modules on a
hypersurface ring is given in terms of linking numbers. This generalizes
results of M. Hochster and proves a conjecture of J. Steenbrink. As a corollary
we get that the Theta pairing vanishes for isolated hypersurface singularities
in an odd number of variables, as was conjectured by H. Dao.
