Is that true in the strictly legal sense, though -- i.e., for copyright purposes?

No. Published means that someone has accepted and printed an article or a book that you submitted, either on speculation or on request. If your book were published by Vantage or some other subsidy publisher, then YOU might say you were a published author, but nobody else would.
