Necromancy
(gcide) | Necromancy \Nec"ro*man`cy\, n. [OE. nigromaunce, nigromancie,
OF. nigromance, F. n['e]cromance, n['e]cromancie, from L.
necromantia, Gr. ?; nekro`s a dead body (akin to L. necare to
kill, Skr. na[,c] to perish, vanish) + ? divination, fr. ?
diviner, seer, akin to E. mania. See Mania, and cf.
Internecine, Noxious. The old spelling is due to
confusion with L. niger black. Hence the name black art.]
The art of revealing future events by means of a pretended
communication with the dead; the black art; hence, magic in
general; conjuration; enchantment. See Black art.
[1913 Webster]
This palace standeth in the air,
By necromancy plac[`e]d there. --Drayton.
