This will depend on how the Python script is called,
my recommendation would be to call the script in the
context of the DTML document like in the URL:

http://myserver/DTMLDoc/pyScript

Then the DTML Document would be accessed through
"context" as in:

context.title

Otherwise, you would have to access it by traversing
the attributes of it's parent folders as in:

doc = context.folder.subfolder.DTMLDoc
doc.title
