There was some speculation that this relationship "cost [Cecil] the promotion to the highest echelons of the diplomatic service which his talents merited."[1] Cecil would later write a biography of Maclean. Cecil went on to become a reader in Contemporary German History from 1968–78, and chairman of the Graduate School of Contemporary European Studies from 1976–78,[2] at the University of Reading. From 1968–94 he was chairman of the London-based Institute for Cultural Research (ICR),{{efn|Now superseded by The Idries Shah Foundation.}} founded by the writer, thinker and teacher in the Sufi mystical tradition, Idries Shah[1][2] (for whom Cecil wrote an obituary).[3] Cecil wrote three monographs for the institute, and also published several books,[2] including The King's Son, co-compiled for Shah's publishing house, Octagon Press. As well as his interest in Sufism, Cecil had a prior interest in the esoteric work of the Russian mystic, P. D. Ouspensky. Ouspensky lectured in New York, and had been a student of George Gurdjieff whose school became known as the Fourth Way.[1] DeathRobert Cecil died in the village of Hambledon, Hampshire on 28 February 1994.[1] WorksICR monographs
