Might be 2023. A look through the author’s list of publications (https://www.jonathancohenweb.com/jc-pubs.html https://www.jonathancohenweb.com/jc-pubs.html) gives a citation under 2023:
“Why Do We Call It 'America'?" [C]. American Heritage 68.7.”
That links to an essay at https://www.americanheritage.com/why-do-we-call-it-america https://www.americanheritage.com/why-do-we-call-it-america which says in an editor’s note that “Portions of this essay originally appeared in The American Voice.” The americanheritage.com version looks very similar to this one.
- dang 2y agoI guess that's the best evidence we have so I went with 2023 above. Thanks! (Seems likely to me that it was written earlier, or the most recent reference wouldn't have been 2001, but that's only a hunch.)
- madcaptenor 2y agoI agree it seems unlikely. On the other hand there’s a reference to “ the current (fifth) edition of Webster's New World College Dictionary” and that seems to be from 2016 - so perhaps the article was mostly done in the late eighties / early nineties but got some updates here and there.
