Black art In Webster's Dictionary

\Black" art`\ The art practiced by conjurers and witches; necromancy; conjuration; magic. Note: This name was given in the Middle Ages to necromancy, under the idea that the latter term was derived from niger black, instead of nekro`s, a dead person, and mantei`a, divination. --Wright.
