Life

Wecker was first married to Israel Aeschenberger, town clerk in Altdorf near Nuremberg.[1] In 1572 their daughter Katharina married the scholar Nicolaus Taurellus. Following the death of her first husband, Wecker married the physician Johann Jakob Wecker (1528–1586) from Basel. He held the position of city physician (Шаблон:Lang) in Colmar, where he also died. Two years after his death Wecker published Antidotarium Speciale, ex. opt. authorum … scriptis fideliter congestum et amplius triente actum in Basel. Even earlier, in 1586, she had authored a wedding poem for Jacob Pömer and Barbara Löffelholtz, signing as „Anna Kellerin, Doctor Hannß Jacob Wecker seligen hinderlassene Wittfraw“ (Anna Kellerin, the late doctor Hannß Jacob Wecker's widow).

Following her second husband's death Wecker lived with her daughter in Nuremberg. In the year of her death she finished her main work, the cookbook Ein Köstlich new Kochbuch (a delicious new cookbook), dedicated to Luise Juliana von Oranien-Nassau. It was the first printed cookbook in German authored by a woman.[2] It was published in 1597 by Katharina Taurellus and reprinted numerous times until the end of the 17th century. Together with Philippine Welser (De re coquinaria, 1545) and Sabina Welserin (Das Kochbuch der Sabina Welserin, 1553), Anna Wecker counts amongst the few 16th-century women food writers known by name.[3]

  1. Classen has Israel Aeschenberger as second husband. This seems improbable, as their daughter Katharina got married in 1572, when Johann Jakob Wecker, who according to Classen would have been Anna Wecker's first husband, was still alive. The correct order of husbands can be found for example in: Xaver Schmidt: Nicolaus Taurellus. Theodor Blaesing, Erlangen 1860, p. 75.
