Abstract
The article deals with the main ideas expounded in P. Trawny's book "Heidegger's Fragments" and his evaluation of Heidegger. P. Trawney shows Heidegger's attempts to raise objections to the ideas of straightforward understandability and transparency of language, being practised by a large number of philosophers of the day. Heidegger's thought is aimed at preservation of a certain kind of freedom by way of linguistic efforts. "I have forgotten the thought that makes for the upheaval of life" - the author of the book writes in order to characterise the situation when Heidegger engaged in philosophy in the twenties of the 20th century. Heidegger's texts demonstrate his attempts to obtain or to re-gain the thought "that makes for the upheaval of life". What was the historical background for these attempts? Is it possible to use these texts (and the nascent thought about the upheaval of life) also for the present time?.
