Serena Talento
Serena Talento anafundisha Kiswahili na kozi maalum kuhusu taaluma ya tafsiri, hasa kuhusiana na muktadha wa Kiafrika, katika Chuo Kikuu cha Bayreuth. Aidha, ni Mtafiti Mshirika katika Idara ya Isimu na Kitendo cha Lugha katika Chuo Kikuu cha Free State, na Mwanachama Mshirika wa Kituo cha Tsikinya-Chaka katika Chuo Kikuu cha Witwatersrand. Nyanja zake za utafiti ni pamoja na mabadilishano ya kifasihi kutoka na kwenda Kiswahili, sosholojia ya tafsiri, historia ya tafsiri, tafsiri na uzalendo, tafsiri za kazi za Shakespeare kwa Kiswahili, pamoja na tafsiri na utamaduni wa muswada.
Kitabu chake, Framing Texts/Framing Social Spaces: Conceptualising Literary Translation in Three Centuries of Swahili Literature, kinachunguza mjadala kuhusu tafsiri ya kifasihi kwenda Kiswahili katika miuktadha mitatu ya kihistoria ili kubaini jinsi mjadala huo unavyofungamana na nyanja za kifasihi, kihistoria, na kijamii za mazingira lengwa.
