How is Minerva different than her sisters? How does this influence what she does?

Unlike her sisters, Minerva wants freedom, independence and individuality. She feels trapped by her family and wants an education. To be tied down to a life dictated by men is incomprehensible. All of these things lead Minerva to become a huge part of the revolution. Her marriage to Manolo is a partnership of shared beliefs. Thus, she becomes more involved as a revolutionary than her sisters. She is also the most reckless.
