"In Vain I Tried to Tell You: Essays in Native American Ethnopoetics" and "Foundations in Sociolinguistics: An Ethnographic Approach."Dr. Hymes considered becoming a poet like his college friend Snyder, but he pursued a different path, either because of his greater fascination with anthropology or perhaps because he feared he had insufficient talent, his son Robert said. Dr. Hymes never lost his love for the art form, however, and continued writing throughout his life.
