What does いう mean in this sentence


I have this sentence:

> 仕事のあと、私のパワーは完全に消え、勉強しようというモチベーションは湧いてこない

which means:

> After work, my energy completely vanishes and I don’t have any motivation to
> study.

But I don't know what いう means in 勉強しようと **いう** モチベ...




I'm a Japanese but not a student of languages.  
So, my explanation below may not match your teacher, textbook or mother
tongue.

I think your Japanese English translation is good, however you can take:

[code]

    After work, my energy completely vanishes and I don't have any motivation that I will study something.
    
[/code]

In this translation, the Japanese word `という` means the English word `that` in
`any motivation that I will study something`.

So, the pattern `a-SENTENCE という a-NOUN` can translate like `a-NOUN that
a-SENTENCE`.  
`a-SENTENCE` qualifies `a-NOUN`.

And there is also the pattern `a-NOUN という another-NOUN`.  
`a-NOUN` qualifies `another-NOUN`.

Using this heuristics, you will get literal translation that may be unnatural
English, however you will get some hints.
