"context" is a generic name for the current, er, context.
e.g. if i visit http://www.some-zope-site.org/foo/bar/baz,
you could say i am calling baz in the context of bar.
so what methods bar has depends on what kind of object bar is.
That's where docfinder comes in... you visit bar in the ZMI and 
see what it says.

you should also read the zope book...
currently in progress version here:
