How does Béatrix develop the theme of Sacrifice and Suffering?

Béatrix by Honoré de Balzac develops Sacrifice and Suffering across the chapters the companion marks for this theme.

Themes of self-denial and emotional pain are central, with Camille sacrificing her own happiness for Calyste's, and characters enduring heartbreak, jealousy, and the agony of unfulfilled desire.

Camille's self-effacement and Béatrix's internal conflict highlight the pain inherent in unrequited and forbidden love.
