  This paper presents a novel concept of a Polyatomic Logic and initiates its
systematic study. This approach, inspired by Inquisitive semantics, is obtained
by taking a variant of a given logic, obtained by looking at the fragment
covered by a selector term. We introduce an algebraic semantics for these
logics and prove algebraic completeness. These logics are then related to
translations, through the introduction of a number of classes of translations
involving selector terms, which are noted to be ubiquitous in algebraic logic.
In this setting, we also introduce a generalised Blok-Esakia theory which can
be developed for special classes of translations. We conclude by showing some
systematic connections between the theory of Polyatomic Logics and the general
Blok-Esakia theory for a wide class of interesting translations.
