In Don Quixote what was Cervantes trying to say about romanticism?

Answer

Romanticism didn't reach the literary scene till about 150 years after Cervantes' death, so I assume you mean something like lack of realism. The novel is in many respects a satire of: flights of fancy, lack of realism, Spanish society (of his own time). Of course, it also satirizes kinghts and chivalry. I hope this is some use.
