How does Ursule Mirouët develop the theme of Love and Marriage?

Ursule Mirouët by Honoré de Balzac develops Love and Marriage across the chapters the companion marks for this theme.

Romantic love, particularly between Ursule and Savinien, is portrayed as a force that transcends social barriers, yet it is constantly thwarted by parental pride, class prejudice, and financial considerations.

Savinien's love for Ursule is opposed by his mother, who prioritizes family honor over personal happiness.
