Abstract: 
In this talk we will discuss some new and old results regarding the wonderful embeddings of classical complex
symmetric spaces. More precisely, we will introduce certain (non-arithmetic)
quotients of  classical symmetric spaces. Then we will describe their combinatorial
and geometric properties in relation with their wonderful embeddings.
Our running example will be on the variety of nondegenerate quadrics.
