The 1990s have seen the rapid expansion of the use of genre analysis in educational contexts, especially in the teaching of English for Academic Purposes. In the aim of maintaining a dialogue between theory and application during this growth period, unities and distinctions between genre analysis and register analysis as practices, and between genre and register as constructs are critically overviewed, and issues for application of analytical practice to pedagogy are outlined. In doing so, this paper provides an evaluative survey of the state of the art of theoretical and applied resources in genre and register analysis
