Abstract: Building on work of Holy, L"ucke and Njegomir cite{MR3913154} on small embedding characterizations of large cardinals, we use some classical results of Baumgartner (see cite{MR0384553} and cite{MR0540770}), to give characterizations of several well-known large cardinal ideals, including the Ramsey ideal, in terms of generic elementary embeddings; we also point out some seemingly inherent differences between small embedding and generic embedding characterizations of subtle cardinals. Additionally, we present a simple and uniform proof which shows that, when $kappa$ is weakly compact, many large cardinal ideals on $kappa$ are nowhere $kappa$-saturated. Lastly, we survey some recent consistency results concerning the weakly compact ideal as well as some recent results on the subtle, ineffable and $P{i}_1^1$-indescribable ideals on $P_{k}appalambda$, and we close with a list of open questions.
