Sophie Wilhelmine Scheibler
Sophie Wilhelmine Scheibler (full name: Anna Sophia Wilhelmina Scheibler , née Koblanck , * around 1749; † before 1829) was a German cookbook author who was just as popular in the Brandenburg area as Henriette Davidis in Central Westphalia. Her exact life dates are not known.
family
Wilhelmine Koblanck was the daughter of the city and official surgeon of Berlin David Balthasar Koblanck and his wife Charlotte Helene, née Müller. In 1776 she married Bernhard Wilhelm Scheibler (1743–1805), the son of Wilhelm Wimar Gerhard Scheibler (1715–1803), brother of the founder of the Monschauer cloth factory Johann Heinrich Scheibler and who in 1757 by Friedrich II. As head of the Kgl. Tuchfabrik was called to Berlin . Her son Friedrich August Theodor was the father of the chemist Carl Scheibler . Her granddaughter Emma was the grandmother of the famous landscape painter Max Clarenbach . One of her nephews was David Emilius Heinrich Koblank .
Main work
In 1815 the well-known cookbook “ General German Cookbook for Bourgeois Households ” was first published by the Amelang Berlin publishing house. Afterwards it saw many reprints, but there were also just as many plagiarisms. In 1828 a second part was published, which had its own edition count.
After the 12th edition of the first and the 5th edition of the second part, from 1853 both parts were published as one book with the number of editions of the first part (i.e. the 13th) under the title “ General German Cookbook for All Stands ”. From the 28th edition of 1883, Amelang Verlag often used the phrase “ Scheibler's cookbook ” or just “ Scheibler ” on the title of the book and only kept the original title on the inside of the cover sheet. However, this did not change over the years and was then used by competing publishers even after the copyright expired. Even the renowned Killinger Verlag , which otherwise only published specialist books for professional chefs, published its own edition of Scheibler's cookbook.
All of a sudden, interest in the work was lost. After Amelang Verlag published the 47th edition in 1927, no further copies were printed for 50 years - not even by other publishers. In 1977 Weltbild then published the first reprint, which many should follow. Reprints of the book are still being printed today.
plagiarism
“In 1839 a“ The latest complete Berlin cookbook for middle-class households by Marie Schreiber ”was published. Printing and publishing by Wilhelm Pohl. He partially canceled the first edition and left the rest of the copies and his publishing rights to the Berlin bookseller Crantz. Without having new copies printed, he made a foreword and a new title page for the copies he had ceded, which included the work as the “General German Cookbook for Bourgeois Households by Marie Schreiber” and as the second, unchanged edition published by the Verlag des Crantz in 1840 designated. Amelang saw this work as a reprint of his publisher's article and sued Pohl and Crantz at the Berlin royal criminal court. In the scrutinal proceedings that were initiated, both defendants, who were previously employed by Amelang, denied that their cookbook had been reprinted. In particular, Pohl claimed that he himself had both helped stylize the Scheibler's cookbook published by Amelang, as well as having written the Schrreiber's cookbook and merely invented the name Maria Schreiber. The royal criminal court demanded an expert opinion from the literary expert association : whether the first and second edition of the cookbook of the alleged Marie Schreiber was a reprint of Scheibler’s cookbook. The aforementioned association decided on September 16, 1840 unanimously for this. "
