At its most basic level, desktop publishing is taking some text and some graphics and mixing them together on a page then publishing that page in the form of or as part of a flier, brochure, newsletter, greeting card, annual report, business card, or other common (and uncommon) desktop publishing projects.
In practice, there is much more to learn in order to do desktop publishing.
