Skripsi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pemilihan kata, gaya bahasa, pencitraan, dan unsur rasisme dalam sebuah puisi karya William Blake yang berjudul The Little Black Boy, puisi yang menceritakan tentang anak kecil dalam pencarian keberadaan Tuhan dalam hidupnya dan bagaimana ia memaknai identitas dirinya sendiri sebagai seorang kulit hitam dalam lingkungan sosial budaya pada saat itu. Melalui serangkaian analsis tersebut, penulis berusaha mengungkapkan makna dan pesan tersembunyi yang terkandung di dalam puisi tersebut. Metode yang digunakan dalam menganalisis puisi ini adalah metode penelitian struktural dan teori psikologi individual Alfred Adler karena metode ini dianggap akan mempermudah penulis dalam menganalisis unsur intrinsik dan ekstrinsik sebuah puisi.

Dalam analisis ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa puisi The Little Black Boy karya William Blake digunakan oleh penyair sebagai media atau sarana penyampaian rasa simpatinya terhadap orang-orang kulit hitam yang selalu diperlakukan secara tidak adil oleh bangsa kulit putih sehingga menimbulkan rasa inferioritas dalam kehidupan orang-orang kulit hitam tersebut
