Don Quixote is the WRONG answer. Do not believe everything 'knowledgeable' people write here!
Don Quixote does satirize chivalry, but it was written in the early 17th century, which is about 200 years after the end of the Middle ages.
BUT if the question is 'What is the novel that satirized the medieval ideas...'.
The Don Quixote is the Correct answer.
Please mind how you write the question!!!
Don Quixote.

the novels and music exhibited the enrgy of the youth, the ambition of excluded outsiders, and in many cases the smoldering resentment of ideals betrayed.
A novel is a long book in the form of a prose narrative. The term for novels used in the Middle Ages was Roman or Romance, a term that remains in use in most language. But the roman could be in verse, and most of them were in the Middle Ages. The shift to prose took place about the year 1350, so there are some medieval works that qualify as novels.Early romances included Beowulf, which is far more famous today than it was before the 19th century, as it only survived in a single manuscript, which was forgotten. Another very important verse romance was Roman de la Rose, which was translated into English by Geoffrey Chaucer. Yet another, also in verse, is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. None of these quite qualify as a novel, in the sense of the word as used in Modern English, because they are all verse rather than prose.The Prose Lancelot was among the early prose novels written in English, and very influential on later Arthurian compilations. It might be the most famous.I think to pick a most famous novel of the Middle Ages, a person should first decide whether the goal is met by a verse romance or whether a prose novel is required.

Don Quixote is a fictional novel of chivalry.
Yes, chivalry was still an important concept at the time Don Quixote was written in the early 17th century. The novel itself both parodies and pays homage to the ideals of chivalry through the character of Don Quixote.
Modern chivalry is an example of a picaresque novel, characterized by episodic adventures of a rogue or rascal protagonist traveling through a society.
Miguel de Cervantes. In his novel "Don Quixote," Cervantes satirizes the traditions of Spain's feudal past through the character of Don Quixote, who idealizes the chivalric values of medieval knights in a humorous and critical way.
The office of Circumlocution is featured in the novel "Little Dorrit" by Charles Dickens. It satirizes bureaucratic inefficiency and red tape in the government.
Medieval literature was characterized by religious themes, chivalry, and feudal society, while Renaissance literature focused on individualism, humanism, and the revival of classical themes and forms. Renaissance literature also saw the rise of new literary genres such as the novel and the Shakespearean play.
Don Quixote's quest is similar to those undertaken by heroes of epics and romances in that it involves a noble pursuit and a sense of honor. However, the way Don Quixote's quest is portrayed in the novel is different, as it often satirizes traditional heroism and chivalry, highlighting the character's delusion and the absurdity of his actions.
"Room with a View" by E.M. Forster satirizes the manners of the middle-class English folk. The novel uses humor and irony to poke fun at the restrictive social norms and conventions of the time, particularly concerning love and marriage.
The main subject of "Ivanhoe" is the struggle between different factions in medieval England, particularly the conflict between the Saxons and Normans. The novel explores themes of chivalry, honor, and prejudice, as seen through the story of the knight Ivanhoe.
Don Quixote exemplifies humanism through its focus on the value of individualism, dignity, and idealism. Despite Don Quixote's delusions and mistaken beliefs, he embodies the humanist ideals of courage, honor, and compassion, striving to uphold a code of chivalry and justice in a flawed world. Through his character, the novel explores the complexities of humanity and the pursuit of noble ideals in a world that often falls short.
Don Quixote mocks books of chivalry by portraying its protagonist as delusional and out of touch with reality, engaging in absurd and comical adventures. However, the novel also defends these books by showing how they can spark the imagination and inspire noble ideals, even if they lead to folly in practice.
