Lord Emsworth

Lord Emsworth

Lord Emsworth ist eine Romanfigur von P. G. Wodehouse. Er lebt auf seinem Landsitz Blandings Castle in Shropshire, gilt unter seinen Familienangehörigen als leicht debil und widmet seine reichliche Freizeit hauptsächlich der Aufzucht von Schweinen, wobei seine Zuchtsau, die Kaiserin von Blandings bereits mehrfach mit der Silbermedaille der Landwirtschaftsausstellung von Shropshire ausgezeichnet wurde. Daneben ist er damit beschäftigt, den Aufgaben nachzugehen, die seine tyrannischen Schwestern für ihn vorgesehen haben und/oder die immer wiederkehrenden Hochstapler von Blandings Castle zu verbannen.
