In the beginning on this novel the tree is described as an "irate, steely black steeple beside the river. I was damned if I would climb it." The word damned directly tells how the tree will damn Gene and Finny, Finny with a broken leg and a lack of mobility and Gene with a loss of faith and serious guilt.
Also many times Gene hints at telling Finny the truth of what happened on the tree branch, and this foreshadows the actual occurring of events that will take place later in the novel.
In "A Separate Peace," an example of allusion is "There was no harm in taking aim, even if the target was a dream." This statement alludes to the idea of aiming for an unreachable goal, similar to the story of Icarus from Greek mythology.
In "A Separate Peace," the mention of Homer's Iliad serves as an allusion, providing a reference point for the characters and themes in the novel. It also functions on a symbolic level, representing ideas of heroism, conflict, and friendship that are echoed in the story of Gene and Finny.
In "A Separate Peace," the allusion to the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk is made in the Winter Carnival where the event's theme is "Feast Your Eyes." This alludes to Jack's exchange of the family cow for magic beans that lead him to the giant's treasure, symbolizing the characters in the novel seeking escapism and adventure.

In "A Separate Peace," John Knowles uses allusion to the religious story of Abraham and Isaac when he has the boys participate in the winter carnival's tree sacrifice. This allusion underscores themes of betrayal, loyalty, and sacrifice in the novel, highlighting the boys' loss of innocence and the destructive nature of jealousy and competition.
