Helmsman is the metaphor that Jocasta uses to describe Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term metaphor describes the comparison of what generally is unlike. The description fits Theban Queen Jocasta's characterization of her second husband King Oedipus when she makes a sacrifice to Apollo the god of prophecy. She says that Thebans fear as much as a ship's passengers do upon seeing the helmsman terrified.

Oedipus and widowed Theban Queen Jocasta marry, are intimate and have children. The imagery is the same for Jocasta and her first husband King Laius as that for her second husband, Oedipus: like father, like son as it turns out.
