Dear John,
Unfortunately, the large corpus of penitential literature is still
only partly made available through editions (for example, there is as
yet no proper edition of the Summa de vitiis by Guillaume Peirault,
nor of Frere Lorent's Somme le roi). For an overview, look at Pierre
Michaud-Quantin's book on *Sommes de casuistique et manuels de
penitence* (in the series Analecta Mediaevalia Namurcensia, vol. 13,
I think).
