The history of the debates on the foundational implications of the Bellnon-locality theorem displayed very soon a tendency to put the theorem in aperspective that was not entirely motivated by its very assumptions, inparticular in term of a 'local-realistic' narrative, according to which a majortarget of the theorem would be the very possibility to conceive quantum theoryas a theory concerning 'real' stuff in the world out-there. I present here ahistorico-critical analysis of the stages, between 1963 and 1978, through whichthe locality condition of the original Bell theorem almost undiscernibly turnedinto a 'local realism' condition, a circumstance which too often has affectedthe analysis of how serious the consequences of the Bell theorem turn out tobe. In particular, the analysis puts into focus the interpretive oscillationsand inconsistencies that emerge in the very descriptions that many leadingfigures provided themselves of the deep work they devoted to the theorem andits consequences.
