Punishment

I only recently began reading Foucault and I while I am imediately taken by
his gripping imagery and his striking comparisons I am having difficulty
sifting out exactly what is HIS own opinion as distinct from the historical
analysis of that which he is describing. If anyone could help point me to
passages in "Discipline and Punish" which would indicate Foucault's own and
original thought about "punishment".. its justification and its origins I
would be very thankful.
