Abstract
From the perspective of literary ethics,the paper expounds the love ethical thought embodied in William Blake's poems by means of the combination of close reading of poems and ethical analysis.All through his life,Blake is always fighting with the status quo of love in the practice of his love(his happy marriage life and the creation of love poems) in the capitalist society and finally foretells the beauty of love in his love ideal.The paper argues that Blake's love ideal involves the love morals of the ideal human society.
