I'd add to this recommendation first of all Said himself on Foucault in,to
begin with, Orientalism (particularly the introduction and passim;
Foucauldian notions such as "discipline"and "discourse" are key tropes in
Said's earliest work) and later, Culture and Imperialism particularly Ch. 4,
"Discrepant experiences" and page 41 of that, where Said's criticism of
Foucault for ignoring the imperial experience in his theory of power and
relying exclusively on Western texts. Finally, Aijaz Ahmad's chapter of In
Theory on Said ("Orientalism and After: Ambivalence and Metropolitan
Location in the Work of Edward Said") is a good extended analysis/critique of
Said from a marxist viewpoint.
