Zusammenfassung: | An Anglican cleric’s funeral tributes are commonly based on the recollections of mourners. I illustrate some of ‘my’ mourners’ memories, and their conversational idiom – the prevalence of everyday vocabulary. Following W. S. F. Pickering’s pioneering investigation of religious life and ordinary theology in 1950s Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, UK, I propose that such reminiscences provide a source for popular attitudes; they reflect a persistent ‘family Britain’ view of life, shared by churchgoers and non-churchgoers alike. |
