Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to show in what communication contexts Pope John Paul II was during his first homeland pilgrimage and what was the characteristic of those contexts. The research problem lies in a question, if and how communication context determines verbal and non-verbal behaviours of the speaker. The source materials include the video recordings of the first homeland pilgrimage, records of the homilies, the reflections and the speeches. Three parts of the article cover respectively: the concept of the communication context, considering its ambiguity, the factors determining its form and the types of that context.
